Ondrej's post is mostly motivated by his lack of time (please, Ondrej, correct me if I'm wrong), and the fact that for him, continuing to maintain PHP with Suhosin is difficult and time consuming (he made few points explaining why). If Stefan was ready to help (or someone else), both in maintaining the patch and extension in Debian, and also help with the packaging of PHP itself, and with bug reports, triaging and such, it would be totally different. But as much as I can tell, neither Stefan or anyone else seem to be willing to make the necessary efforts. I've bring that up with Stefan, and yet didn't receive a reply from him on this topic.
